6-5-25 Dr Kahlil is awesome and listens to his patients. I love that the staff were very friendly…read moreand very professional. I had issues with the phone service as they have a company scheduling service which is not done in the office. So initially when making an appointment they ask which location do I want to go to based on schedule availability and once I decided on one semi-close to my house I went for appointment which they also gave me the appointment and the location. Also 2 text message reminders which was helpful but upon getting lost from the old address given I called and the scheduling service back and they told me I have no appointment but was 2 weeks from now... This appointment was made a month ago. Upset I had cleared my schedule for this appointment, given the wrong address, and at the time headed to the right location, I went into the office and talked to the front clerk who was super sweet. I showed her my 2 phone txt message reminders for today and she apologized and said it's ok I will put you in and winked she worked me in with no problem. This was a relief. I didn't wait long at all. I filled out the necessary paper work. The staff, I saw prior to the MD visit was super nice and made feel welcomed. Dr Kahlil was very apologetic as well for the inconvenience and misunderstanding on behalf of the call center. He did the exam and gave me sample eye drops & explained my prescription. I was scheduled the next week to see the specialist Dr. Zhao at the same office on 6/12/25 which is next week. Update 6/12/25 I came in 20 early and was met with a smile from the front desk. I waited all of 10 minutes and was called back by a young man who was super nice doing the inner eye photo scans. Dr Zhao I felt listened to my concerns and provided me with a thorough exam. He was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions and did not rush me at all. All was great with my exam and I was given recommendations for allergies dry eyes. It was straight to the point. I recommend these doctors as my service was great thank you 4 stars for the simple fact the call center needs to do better. If you can talk to the actual clinic staff when making the appointment then all is great!

Called over a month ago - specifically asked if they took my insurance and if an eye exam was…read morecovered. They took longer but said yes to set the appointment for 8am today. Waste of time, gas, and energy. Show up, check in, they run insurance again and claim to have not known the exam isn't covered and to shame me into paying in front of a lobby full of people - They either lied then or lied today, regardless would not recommend.

She is in frail health, so I had a lot of concerns about the process, but Dr. Katzman and his team at the Del Mar surgery center where the procedures take place kept her absolutely safe and well cared for. The anesthesiologist is awesome! Mom has 20-20 vision two weeks later. The experience at the La Mesa office was good, other than some substantial waits on busy days. All told, I'd highly recommend.

I will be returning whenever needed, and I certainly recommend the doctor. Thank you for your service Doctor Ou. The office was clean and uncluttered. The counter staff was pleasant. On a side note: I brought in a new pair of prescription glasses that I purchased two years ago to see (haha) if the prescription was accurate; they were from a different provider; they were not effective, if fact they were deficient...I was not charged extra for the assessment, and I am grateful for the confirmation. Again, thank you Dr. Ou.

Great doctor and staff - straight to the point, very honest and didn't sell me on anything at all…read more I was hesitant to provide background that I started struggling a bit to see road signs at night due to it being my first time at an eye doctor. I was thinking any optometrist would try to sell me on a prescription (ridiculous I know - call me skeptical lol!) The testing took 15 min, very efficient. They caught exactly my issue, astigmatism. I do however have 20/20 so he explained that tho I may struggle in more dimly lit areas, glasses were not necessary! Gave me a prescription anyways in case I wanted to see clearer, but assured me my eyes are developed enough to not need any help currently. Great place! Would have given 5 stars, but their sanitization processes are lacking a bit. Things were a bit dirty - but I didn't mind lol!

Superficial. Some doctors get high ratings primarily…read morebecause they just smile a lot. That seems to be the case with this doctor. Dr. Katzman recommended that I NOT get an Extended Depth Of Field (i.e. EDOF) intra-ocular lens SOLEY because I had Lasik eye surgery in the past, without even questioning whether my Lasik surgery might have been a very minor correction, which it was. He could have simply asked for my pre-lasik prescription and I could have provided it. Two prominent Los Angeles eye surgeons DISAGREED with Dr. Katzman, because they asked me for my pre-Lasik prescription which showed that it was a very MINOR correction, which does NOT contra-indicate an EDOF lens. Also, when I asked him whether the VA would pay everything for my surgery, Dr. Katzman said with a big inappropriate smile that I would have to pay an additional $6000 beyond what the VA will pay for a surgery on just one eye. Also, I was astonished that Dr. Katzman THEN spent maybe one third of my appointment time joking with his assistant during my appointment time right in front of my face while I sat in stunned, disbelieving silence. Then, when I asked him questions after that, he looked at me with bulging eyes and told me that he had to go to see another patient, - and so he RAN away. ALSO, I had made it as clear as can be to the Office staff and to him that the VA would be paying for everything. NEVERTHELESS his office charged my Medicare for the exam (which requires that I pay a percentage of the charge). Not a professional and careful practice at all.
